1997 Ford Taurus GL review from North America
"Nothing but good out of this Taurus!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hi, I'm Andrew, and my 97' Taurus is my first car. This is a really good, solid car. It handles just as good as my mom's 2002 Sable (same thing).
An older couple had it, and they never reported any major trouble with it either. I plan on driving this Taurus until it falls apart, so I will keep you informed as anything goes wrong with it (let's just hope it won't) ;)
Nothing is wrong with this Taurus! Tip-Top shape! I would gladly get another one!!
General comments?
Classic V6 power.
Looks good.
Comfortable.
AFFORDABLE!!
Great, solid, reliable car.
I have heard that the Ford dealers are notorious for being lazy, and not fixing your car though...eeek.
